I'm looking for some guidance or best practices for doing partial or hotfix deployments with the BTDF.
To give a bit of background, we have an existing solution that has a number of partners sending data into the system using different methods and requiring different mappings to an internal schema. For organizational reasons, each partner has their own project containing any artifacts specific to them. When one the partners changes how they're sending (usually without warning) we need to quickly fix the problem then deploy the changes without disturbing the other partners. Currently we do this by GAC'ing or refreshing the DLL in the management console, but we're hoping there's a better method using the BTDF.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
